Pickles (comic strip)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pickles is a daily and Sunday comic strip by Brian Crane focusing on a retired couple in their seventies, Earl and Opal Pickles.[1] Inspired by Crane's in-laws, the Pickles find retirement less than idyllic.
The comic is set in Crane's hometown of Sparks, Nevada. The cast includes the Pickles' dog Roscoe, their cat Muffin, their grandson Nelson, and his parents, their daughter Sylvia and her husband Dan, a wildlife photographer.
Pickles has been published for over fifteen years. In 2001, it was named best newspaper comic strip of the year by the National Cartoonists Society.[2]
